Global hospitality brands are entering the Indian market with better processes, advanced technologies, and better distribution capabilities. This influx is putting a great deal of pressure on hoteliers in India that lack the right technologies to up the ante and to take the competition head-on. For new hoteliers, the old technology requires huge upfront costs and ongoing expenses to set up and maintain servers and to invest in an IT workforce. To address these pain points and to help hoteliers stay ahead of the curve, Hotelogix, a global provider of cloud-based hospitality software solutions, along with Amazon Internet Services, ShawMan, and Airpay, came together to host events in Bengaluru, Mumbai, and Delhi. The event was attended by industry stalwarts who shared their views on how to leverage the right cloud-based technologies to become more competitive and agile in the hospitality industry.

The event was marked by a number of educational, networking, and brainstorming sessions along with panel discussions. It provided an interactive platform for industry experts and hoteliers to collectively discuss how cloud is disrupting the hospitality segment and what the future holds for cloud. We have a quick roundup of key takeaways from this event.
